HAMPTON, Va. — After impacting traffic flow on the HRBT and I-64, VDOT suspended interstate closures for the HRBT Expansion Project on June 16, but resumed them on Monday.

VDOT says since then, they have worked with the contractor Hampton Roads Connector Partners (HRCP) to make improvements to their procedures, including enhanced planning, sequences of work, timelines and communications protocols to avoid more traffic nightmares.

Beginning Monday, June 26, interstate closures for the HRBT Expansion Project resumed with the new protocols in place.

As a part of the expansion, construction crews will implement weekly lane closures, detours and traffic pacing on local roads, I-64 and at the HRBT.

Lane closures are listed below, though VDOT says they are subject to change due to weather and other factors.
